Reflection:
Assessment is one of the more difficult standards for a pre-service teacher to analyze. I have a plan in place for my first classroom to help me keep my assessments in order. Each student will have a folder with multiple dividers in it. The sections which I anticipate I will need for easy reference during parent teacher conferences and meetings with fellow teachers and administrators are as follows:
A Red File: This file contains samples of students work in a
progression from the beginning of the year to
the end. Flagged will be exceptional work as well
as, examples which need improvement.
A Blue File: This file will contain any disciplinary actions
required for the particular student.
A Yellow File: This file will be a way of documenting
attendance and participation.
A Green File: This file will contain assessments and grading
for the student.
Evidence:
Assessment is an area for which I stand to make the greatest gains as a new teacher. However, I have performed running records on students to determine needs for student intervention as it pertains to English Language Arts (ELA). I have attached a document which exemplifies a running record as well as my assessment of the student and course of action for improvement in oral reading.
